When she saw the smile on the corners of Qin Mu's mouth, Lady Gongsun's face turned red. She hurriedly broke free from Qin Mu's embrace and hid to the side.
When he saw this, Qin Mu found it funny." Miss Gongsun, we're already friends in adversity, but I don't seem to know your full name.”
Hearing Qin Mu's words, Lady Gongsun who was hiding at the side was slightly stunned.
Turning back to look at Qin Mu, Miss Gongsun murmured softly,""Gongsun Liji, Mr. Qin can just call me Liji.”
"Gongsun Liji?" Qin Mu's gaze focused.
Qin Mu naturally knew about Gongsun Liji. She was the woman who made Ying Zheng fall head over heels for her in the future.
However, perhaps because Gongsun Liji was still young, she didn't have the peerless beauty that she would have in the future. However, even with her current appearance, she was already a beauty that could topple a country.
"Why? Mr. Qin, have you heard of me?”Gongsun Liji said.
Qin Mu shook his head." No, I've never heard of it.”
As he said that, Qin Mu didn't think too much and waved his hand.""Alright, I've finished my business, so I should return to Xianyang.”
Hearing that Qin Mu was going back to Xianyang, Gongsun Liji immediately panicked." What about me? What should I do?”
"Haha." With a faint smile, Qin Mu said," How about this? Since you're separated from your senior brother, we can't go to the border city now. If Miss Gongsun doesn't mind, you can come back to Xianyang with me."”
" This…" Gongsun Liji hesitated.
Seeing this, Qin Mu waved his hand." Miss Gongsun, if you're unwilling, then don't force it. If you can't, I can bring you to Yong City. How about it?”
Gongsun Liji pondered for a long time before nodding heavily." Alright, I'll follow you back to Xianyang. I just hope that Mister Qin can help me find my senior brother."”
"Yes, of course." " Yes." Qin Mu nodded and said," I will get my spies in Yong City to find Brother Jing Ke's whereabouts. After finding him, I will get him to return to Xianyang to find you."”
"Good!" Gongsun Liji replied.
"In that case, our next target is Xianyang!”
……………
Xianyang City, Qin Mu's mansion.
At this moment, it had been almost half a month since Qin Mu had left Xianyang City.
The current Qin Mu's mansion had already been arranged in an orderly manner by the few women who lived in it.
On this day, in a pavilion in the courtyard, Startling Salamander, who had changed into a purple dress, was playing the Chinese chess that Qin Mu had developed with Hu Ji.
In another corner of the courtyard, the two women were practicing their sword techniques with great effort.
Putting down the chess piece in her hand, Hu Ji's expression seemed to be a little resentful." Sigh, this lord has been carrying out the mission for so many days. I wonder how he is. Is he safe?”
The Startling Salamander shook his head and sighed,""Hey, don't worry about him. Since he said he can come back safely, he will definitely come back safely.”
As he spoke, the chess piece in Startling Salamander's hand fell.”
Hearing this, Hu Ji lowered her head and saw that her handsome chess piece had already been checkmated by the Startling Salamander.
"Hey."
Sighing lightly, Hu Ji put down the chess piece and said,""No, I'm really not in the mood.”
With a charming laugh, Startling Salamander put away the chessboard and looked at Hu Ji.""I don't think you don't want to play anymore.”
"I…I…"
Hu Ji's face instantly turned red from the words of the Startling Salamander.
" You…" Just as the Startling Salamander was about to tease Hu Ji, a female servant from the manor walked over quickly.
The female servant came to the front of the Startling Salamander and Hu Ji, bowed and said,""Furen, that Young Master Wang outside the door has come to ask if Milord has returned to the residence again, and he has also asked to see Furen.”
When they heard this, Shocking Salamander and Hu Ji both laughed bitterly. This Qin Mu was really cherished by others.
The Young Mister Wang mentioned by the maidservant was Wang Zheng, and he had another identity, the current King of Qin State, Ying Zheng.
Ever since Ying Zheng parted ways with Qin Mu that day, he had been in the palace and hadn't left.
Ying Zheng only came out of the palace to look for Qin Mu after a few days. However, when he found out that Qin Mu had gone out to handle some matters, he could only return in disappointment.
After that, Ying Zheng would visit Qin Mu's residence once every one to two days, but he would return disappointed every time.
Today, Ying Zheng had once again come to find Qin Mu in high spirits. However, when he found out that Qin Mu hadn't returned to his residence, he hung his head in dejection.
When Zhao Gao, who was standing behind Ying Zheng, saw this, a hint of envy appeared in his eyes. It wasn't for Ying Zheng, but for Qin Mu, whom Ying Zheng had always regarded as his confidant.
To be treated like this by a country's sovereign, this Qin Mu could be considered unprecedented.
"Forget it, my lord. Since Mister Qin hasn't returned, let's return to the residence first.”
Zhao Gao whispered.
Ying Zheng did not want to say anything. He merely nodded slightly and prepared to leave.
But right at this moment, a white figure flashed across the corner of Ying Zheng's eyes.
Seeing this white figure running towards him, Ying Zheng could not help but stop in his tracks out of curiosity.
Meanwhile, Zhao Gao, who was following behind Ying Zheng, had a drastic change in his expression. He immediately stood in front of Ying Zheng, pointed at the white figure and shouted,""Who are you?"
The white figure heard Zhao Gao's shout and couldn't help but stop.
Only then did Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao see the appearance of the newcomer clearly. When the two of them saw the appearance of the newcomer clearly, they could not help but be shocked by the beauty of the newcomer.
The white figure was a woman in a white dress. However, the white dress on the woman seemed to be in tatters.
The woman was very beautiful. Although there was some dust on her face, it still made people's eyes light up.
When the woman saw Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao, her eyes lit up.
She stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Gao's hand. The woman said anxiously,""Mister, do you know where Qin Mu's residence is?”
"Qin Mu?"
Hearing that the woman was looking for Qin Mu, Ying Zheng couldn't help but pull Zhao Gao away from him and walk to the woman.
